Vaibhav Sooryavanshi faces criticism after dismissal in Duleep Trophy final

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi was dismissed for eight runs during the second innings of the Duleep Trophy final at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Wednesday. The 15-year-old batter was stumped by Narayan Jagadeesan after unsuccessfully charging off-spinner Tripurana Vijay. This follows a 44-run performance on the first day of play where he was dismissed while attempting a pull shot. Critics and commentators noted a lack of patience and shot selection in his approach compared to teammate Ishan Kishan, who scored 270 runs. East Zone holds a 372-run lead in the match. Observers suggest the young player needs to improve his red-ball temperament to complement his aggressive batting style.
